We create 10 - 15 minute video essays that dissect album covers with the same rigour music critics apply to sound. Through five distinct series from Fresh off the Press to The Icons we examine how visual design represents, elevates, or betrays the music within. Using 10 core analytical metrics, we deliver honest ratings and deeper understanding of the art you see before you hear.
For curious minds where music meets design; record collectors, cultural critics, graphic designers, and anyone who believes album artwork shapes musical experience. Rigorous analysis meets subjective passion. Join those who debate, discover, and dig deeper.
When album artwork falls short, we respond with action. Record Redesign & Rescue transforms poor design into educational opportunity. We create alternative covers that better serve the music, explaining every design decision and demonstrating what happens when visual and sonic narratives finally align. It's constructive criticism you can see, compare, and learn from.
